In 2012, incumbent Sen. Jon Tester (D) did not face a Democratic primary challenger and defeated his Republican rival by four percentage points. This race was one of at least nine top-ballot 2012 races that contained Libertarian candidates who received more total votes than was the difference between the Democratic winner and the GOP runner-up.[5] President Donald Trump also won the state in 2016 by 20 points, making this Senate seat a target for the Republican Party to target to flip.
Tester's campaign reported raising $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2017, bringing his total cash on hand to $5.4 million to defend his seat.[6]
